Seattle Great Wheel
Seattle, USA
The Seattle Great Wheel is a 175-foot-tall observation wheel located on Pier 57, offering sweeping views of Elliott Bay and the Seattle skyline. Built in 2012, its 42 enclosed gondolas are designed for year-round rides, providing a striking contrast to the historical waterfront area.
Visit during clear days for the best visibility, ideally in the late afternoon when the sun sets behind the mountains. Nearby attractions include the Seattle Aquarium and the Seattle Waterfront, where you can explore various shops and eateries. There's something calming about watching the ferries come and go from the bay.
